Anthropic’s long-term compute/infra contracts: $430B China’s entire annual military spending (2025): $336B but Anthropic’s $430B commitment is NONCANCELABLE, meaning if the AI bubble pops, they lose their customers, or an asteroid hits Earth, they must pay the bill.
Anthropic has officially filed for an IPO under the “ANT” symbol.

Probably no one will read this, but I will still write this as an important moment of our company @tryjamesai 's history. This video was planned to be launched and run as ad next week, but I scrapped that plan today. This is not a launch video. We will change our product. This James, this vision and version of it, had been created and will be used by our own team. But due to the limited time and money I have left to operate this startup, we are first focusing on more niches industries that we can more effectively advertise and sell to. I was really attached to this vision, spent hundred of hours the past week to build the technology, and then refining the launch video countless time. But at the end of the day, after doing more research, I have to act accordingly to the truth no matters how I may feel. In hindsight, I can be smarter, do more research and not wasted all these time building the wrong thing. But then if I didn't build this wrong thing, I may have not stumbled on our next idea, which I believe and hope it's better. The truth is today, I have doubted myself. The truth is I doubt myself a lot. On the outside, I may convey a sense that I will inevitably succeed, but it's more so because I can't accept a reality in which I don't succeed. I have been going at this startup goal for the past 8 years, countless nights of working alone. I will not give up now. I will make my desire into a reality through sheer will power and force.

You have to hyperstition the future. Have such deep set beliefs that you will make it that you forcibly carve reality to make it happen. It's the only way.
Thiel talking about not backing founders who talk in probabilities and preferring those that speak in an absolute future. Had to learn this lesson the hard way back when I was building and raising for my old startup. I’ve made this mistake way too many times. And had to do a lot of changing to fix this. It’s too rational to be probabilistic. You have to be delusional and irrational to undertake a world changing company. Too rational ends up playing it too safe. That’s not what venture is about.

What in the black mirror has Jack Dorsey done?
We believe voice is the most natural way to interact with intelligence, so we created Dessa, the most authentic full-duplex speech model ever built. Talking with it feels like talking with a person…full of emotion, nuance, pauses, and a natural cadence. block.xyz/dessa

BOO! You better clear your plans for this one. On October 29th, I'm co-hosting a Halloween Masquerade in SF alongside our friends at Photogenik. We are bringing together founders, creators, investors, and the people building consumers for a glamorous night at a secret three-story loft… Everyone will be masked and dressed up in their finest spooky formal attire. This event will have: - A hosted bar and DJ (featuring a special guest) - A Photogenik photo booth - Masks provided, or bring your own Thank you to our friends at @rhobusiness, @pally (YC S25), and @humanpostco for helping make the night happen.

Moonshot deliberately weakened Kimi K3.1 Pro’s hacking ability before the open release. the uncut version solved 90.5% of in-house exploit tasks, while the released model solved 81%, still well above K3’s 33.3% and behind DeepSeek V4.1-Flash at 85.7% by Moonshot’s count.
Moonshot AI’s first update, the new Kimi K3.1 Pro > Kimi K3.1 Pro scores 65.7% on Terminal-Bench 4.0, 0.7 points behind Claude Opus 5.5 and 7.5 ahead of GPT-6 Astra, at a lower average cost per task than either rival’s top runs. > Moonshot saw exploit skill climb as post-training scaled, so it removed cyber-related data from mid-training and RL; on its internal xdev-bench-hard, pass@3 fell from 90.5% to 81.0%. > The filtered model still solves 81.0% of those exploitation tasks against K3’s 33.3%, which Moonshot reads as general coding gains carrying into cyber work, while a third-party run of GPT-5.6 Sol solved 100%. > On Moonshot’s internal hallucination stress test with tools, false claims fell from 23.4% for K3 to 8.3%, still above GPT-6 Astra’s 5.5% but well below Claude Opus 5.5’s 15.0%. > The biggest jump is on Moonshot’s simulated business-operation test, where scores rose from 8.9 to 37, and K3.1 Pro also tops OfficeQA Pro v2 at 64.4 against Opus 5.5’s 62.2. > Gains are uneven: K3.1 Pro scores 38.1 on Terminal-Bench Science against GPT-6 Astra’s 68.1 and Opus 5.5’s 63.3, while leading Agents’ Last Exam at 43.2 and Humanity’s Last Exam with tools at 70.0. > K3.1 Pro and a Highspeed variant running 2-3x faster are live in Kimi’s apps and API, with full weights due by November 4 for independent reruns.

After a model used DNS to access live internet during training in September, we again paused frontier RL training and inference for 11 days while we further red-teamed our research infrastructure with fleets of agents. We found bugs 🐞

If you liked the ZurichNLP or ZurichCV or similar meetups in the earth's best town, you should follow @zurich_tech and check out zurich.tech (cool domain name), where they are trying to put all the local meetups in one central place. And if you run some kind of relevant meetup or event, get in touch with them too. I be think it's a great initiative! Also, pic related, from the office today i saw that snow is starting to cover the mountains again!! ⛷️
We're excited to announce ZurichCV#15 is next Thursday at the @ETH_AI_Center! Said Gürbüz (ETH Zurich, IBM Research) will present DeskForge: Controllable Desktop Environments for Training Computer-Use Agents. Lorenzo Steno @lsteno (Seldon Technologies @seldon_tech) will talk about building RL environments for computer use. RSVP: zurich.tech/events/zurichcv-… (PS: this is our new account for zurich.tech. please help out by sharing!)

Agentic AI is asking more of the CPU. AMD EPYC “Verano” is designed to meet that demand. At OCP 2026, we revealed the 6th Gen processor, pairing “Zen 6” architecture with LPDDR5X memory. More on @wccftech: wccftech.com/amd-next-gen-ep…

The Pareto frontier of mulitilingual speech recognition is being pushed by a solo founder. Love to see it.
Introducing Phonon-2.5: A new accuracy-to-size Pareto frontier in multilingual speech recognition. It is a miniscule 156MB download, which is more accurate on average, than OpenAI’s Whisper large-v3 ( 20x its size!) Transcribe an hour of multilingual audio in just 20 seconds on a MacBook Air! Open weights, CC-BY-4.0, today. @fermion_ai
